I hired on Allison who is the events manager at Osteria Via Stato to plan my
wedding. She was Absolutely incredible! She made my job as the bride to be just
that! She took care of everything from forks to flowers to food! All I had to do was
show up and enjoy the day! Her staff was extremely friendly and professional. To this day my guests
are still talking about how smooth the whole day went and how they have never had such amazing
wedding food before. I would recommend Allison to anyone looking for a beautiful, well
organized, and stress free event!
